Big Game from Tahi As Bingham Won 21-16
Lincoln Tahi was instrumental in extending Bingham's winning streak to three on Friday. Nobody could stop Tahi as he rushed for 117 yards, and also picked up 51 receiving yards and a touchdown. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his fourth straight game with at least 102 rushing yards.
Tahi and Bingham will be playing at home against Corner Canyon at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Tahi will face off against Bryton Brady, the Chargers' star running back. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.

Wyatt Bingham Sets Career High in Rushing Yards
Wyatt Bingham posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Friday. He threw for 162 yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 67 yards.
If history really does repeat itself, Bingham might just drop another big game when he faces off against Riverton on Friday. When Bingham last faced the Silverwolves back in October of 2023, he threw for 378 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 11.5 yards per attempt.

Riverton Gets a Boost from Neilson in 21-16 Defeat
While Andrew Neilson delivered a dominant effort on Friday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Riverton. Neilson turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 53 yards and a touchdown, while also throwing for 120 yards and a touchdown.
Neilson will have a chance to log another big game when he takes on Mountain Ridge on Friday. The Silverwolves had to take a loss when they last met the Sentinels, but Neilson had little to do with the loss: he rushed for 66 yards and a touchdown on only five carries. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
